Today I was invited along to present the easter egg prizes to all the children who had entered the competition. This year’s focus was on cocoa and chocolate and women producers. The outline of a cocoa pod had been sent to the local schools and the children were invited to write, draw or create a collage to show what Fairtrade chocolate means to them.

The children were all so happy to be chosen as the winners and had big beaming smiles, lovely afternoon! Thank you Ruth for inviting me!
